Machine learning (ML) lets enterprises unlock the true potential of their data, automate decisions, and transform their business processes to deliver exponential value to their customers. To help you take advantage of ML, Amazon SageMaker provides the ability to build, train, and deploy ML models quickly. Until recently, if you used Amazon SageMaker, you could […]

AWS DeepRacer, launched at re:Invent 2018, helps developers get hands on with reinforcement learning (RL).  Since then, thousands of people have developed and raced their models at 21 AWS DeepRacer League events at AWS Summits across the world, and virtually via the AWS DeepRacer console. Beyond the summits there have been several events at AWS […]

Machine learning (ML) is routinely used by countless businesses to assist with decision making. In most cases, however, the predictions and business decisions made by ML systems still require the intuition of human users to make judgment calls. In this post, I show how to combine ML with sensitivity analysis to develop a data-driven business […]

The AWS DeepRacer League is the world’s first autonomous racing league, open to anyone.
